Got yourself a Team Associated RC10B4? Check out this new +8mm chassis kit for your ride! It fits the B4 FT, B4.1 FT, and B4 RS RTR, and will add some always appreciated drive-ability. Think I’m kidding? This exact kit was prototype tested at the 2011 I.F.M.A.R. and yeah…it brought home the World Championship 🙂 Check out [...]
It looks like Kyosho has been working hard recently!

Both buggies run on AA’s, are four wheel drive and have oil filled shocks too. Kyosho also include [...]
What a weekend of racing, Formula 1 was blitzing around Suzuka in Japan while the Bathurst 1000 was taking place down under. Every time I see a “real” road course (like both of those) I feel sorry for our rc guys racing on flat ozite tracks. If they only knew how fun/challenging a road course can actually be. [...]

Michigan Cubby– We’ve gone round and round at the office about that very subject. [...]
